I have set E:\ as my default download location. However in some cases Firefox does not respect my choice and silently downloads stuff to C:\Users\Name\Downloads. I really hate this. One example, a pdf downloaded from here https://scribd.vpdfs.com/. Please fix it. Thx.

Line break (\r\n) missing in clipboard after Firefox update – breaks formatting in Windows apps

Hello!

After the latest Firefox Desktop updates (not sure which one exactly, since I didn't notice the issue immediately), I've started experiencing a problem with copy-pasting text — specifically with line break formatting on Windows 10.

Instead of copying line breaks using the Windows-style carriage return + line feed (\r\n), Firefox now copies only line feeds (\n). As a result, the text appears as a single long line when pasted into native Windows applications — which breaks the expected formatting. This behavior mainly affects:

  • Text editable fields (e.g., contenteditable or textarea) in modern web applications.
  • Code blocks or snippets (such as in Markdown or monospace) copied using "Copy" buttons (e.g., in ChatGPT or GitHub).

At first, I noticed this only when copying code from ChatGPT using the code-snippet copy button. But now it happens in almost all editable text areas — if I enter text with line breaks manually, and then copy it, those breaks do not appear properly in native Windows apps. For example:

  • In Google Sheets, I often edit text with line breaks in a cell, but when I copy it back, it's all flattened into one line.

Right now, I have to fix this using scripts that replace \n with \r\n, but that's a very inconvenient workaround.

❗My main question is: What changed in Firefox that caused this behavior? This used to be reliable and feels like a regression. It’s a very basic feature and critically important for my daily workflow!

🔧 Follow-up questions:

  1. Can this be fixed in a future Firefox update? Will it be addressed?
  2. Is there a way to fix or configure this behavior right now via browser(settings, configs)?
  3. Is there an extension or workaround that can restore the \r\n format without manual scripting?

Affected apps:

  • ChatGPT
  • Google Spreadsheets
  • Trello
  • ProtonMail (regular text copying)
  • (more)

Thanks in advance for any clarification or suggestions!

Hello Firefox You are very good I use Firefox since a long time I wish that Firefox create an addon to enable us to colour every tab in a session where that colour of the tab can be saved for this single tab and we can change the colour of the tab according to our browsing meanings, because we tend to give the colours meanings so that we categorise the coloured tab in its place without changing the ordinary and usual user interface, that will make browsing more funny and productive, that's it

Thank you Firefox you are very good

I no longer see search suggestions when I start typing in the search bar. I still have "show search suggestions" checked in Settings, Search.

I should also ask: I don't remember how I enabled the old search bar, to the right of the address bar, mostly because I'm used to it. I don't see a box for it in Settings. What if I wanted to remove it? What if I then wanted it back?

Well, ok, one more. Also in Settings, Search, I see a drop-down list from which to choose my search engine, but no space to add a new one. Where's that? I've seen instructions to navigate to another search engine, but that can't be the way to do it. I normally wouldn't navigate to a search engine's page before searching.
